Cut Golf introduces Cut Blue DC golf ball – featuring higher compression and 360 dimple pattern
Cut Golf has recently introduced the newest ball to its Cut Blue family—the Cut Blue DC, which features Dual Core technology, enhanced compression and a 360 dimple pattern.
The latest addition from Cut Golf is targeted towards golfers of all skill levels, and along with its Dual Core which bids to maximize initial velocity, the ball is Mantle designed to provide for high precision spin control as well as improved putting feel and sound.
The Cut Blue DC contains a 4-piece construction with a urethane cover designed to maximize spin and greenside feel, while the ball’s 360 dimple pattern is designed to increase aerodynamics.
The latest ball from Cut Golf is fully conforming to USGA rules, features 105 compression (up from 90 on the original Cut Blue) and arrives in both white and atomic yellow color codes.
The Cut Blue DC is available to purchase now at CutGolf.com and costs $29.95 per dozen.
Our friends at TXG, Tour Experience Golf, reviewed the Cut Blue DC, and you can check out the video below.

Rickie Fowler’s new putter: Standard-length Odyssey Jailbird 380 in custom orange
Editor’s note: This is an excerpt from a piece our Andrew Tursky originally wrote for PGATour.com’s Equipment Report. Head over there for the full article.
…The Jailbird craze hasn’t really slowed down in 2024, either. According to Odyssey rep Joe Toulon, there are about 18-20 Jailbird putter users on the PGA TOUR.
Most recently, Akshay Bhatia won the 2024 Valero Texas Open using a broomstick-style Odyssey Jailbird 380 putter and Webb Simpson is switching into a replica of that putter at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.
Now, Fowler, who essentially started the whole Jailbird craze, is making a significant change to his putter setup.
Fowler, who has had a couple weeks off since the 2024 RBC Heritage, started experimenting with a new, custom-orange Jailbird 380 head that’s equipped with a standard 35-inch putter build, rather than his previous 38-inch counter-balanced setup.
According to Fowler, while he still likes the look and forgiveness of his Jailbird putter head, he’s looking to re-incorporate more feel into his hands during the putting stroke.
He told GolfWRX.com on Tuesday at the Wells Fargo Championship that the 38-inch counterbalanced setup “served its purpose” by helping him to neutralize his hands during the stroke, but now it’s time to try the standard-length putter with a standard-size SuperStroke Pistol Tour grip to help with his feel and speed control.
Although Fowler was also spotted testing standard-length mallets from L.A.B. Golf and Axis1 on Tuesday, he confirmed that the custom Odyssey Jailbird 380 is the putter he’ll use this week at the 2024 Wells Fargo Championship.

Any chance you guys are going to do a write up on Cut Grey? Ball performs just as well a Pro V for $30 less. I have been playing these since 2018 without any cover issues. Not sure how these guys haven’t received more attention.

Nice to see this ball getting attention from GolfWRX. Great performance and value. I have the guys in my Sunday morning group making the switch to Cut.

Hi Dave,
We’ve never had mantle durability issues. We truly believe the DC performs and holds up better than any $30 ball in the market.

Good ball! Never heard of the brand until I got a sleeve of their Grays in a tournament last year. Thought the DC was a good price compared to the Chromesoft I used, so I tried a dozen and really liked it. Made the change from a long-time Callaway ball user.

What DaveD said. I bought a box of Cut Blues for $20. Hit a 3/4 wedge shot and it shredded the cover. You get what you pay for I guess! Snells only for me.

I won’t buy them I saw the pictures of the damage, especially wedge shots. Apparently another issue was raised seams. Ugh.

Thanks for your comments. We acknowledged a cover issue with our Blue in the middle of last year and rolled out with an improved cover towards the end of 2019. That said, the DC ball has never had durability issues, so we believe you’ll be pleased with a purchase of either the new DCs or the improved Blues. We stand by our 100% Satisfaction Guarantee on all our products for all our valued customers.

Curious to know if they have resolved the issues with Mantle durability.
